[Football] Why do fans feel the need to leave a game before the end?

[AmexRuislip]

As I was watching the game today in the NW corner of the ground, I noticed a number of fans leaving the game about 10 mins before the end.
I cannot understand why, when you have paid, that people leave, especially in an important game like todays.
It was quite eloquently put by a guy sitting next to me......"why aren't you twats staying to watch game"

Over to you

 

[portslade seagull]

Well they all missed the goal

 

[RM-Taylor]

Seems ridiculous that they didn't want to stay and applaud the team after the game after what has been such a terrific season for us.

It's their choice.

Why do so many get so upset about it? (repeatedly!!!!!!)

 

[Milano]

What is more annoying the 10 minutes it takes for people to get back after half time. There were still people coming back in on 55 minutes, even in the north, PATHETIC behaviour. Is a pint/pie/coffee more important than our biggest home game since Palace?

If we (hopefully not) do end up in the play offs I'm writing to Barber to ask for all outlets to be closed at HT in the semi.

I cannot understand why, when you have paid, you worry so much what other people do towards the end of the match.
Maybe it's better for them to go early to try and beat the rush, especially if they have a distance to travel home.
They might all be alcoholics and need to get to the front of the queue to quench their addiction
Anyway, who really cares?

Perhaps:
their house was on fire
their mother was taken ill
a pipe has burst in their ceiling
the dogs run off
their wifes having an affair
they were diabetic and forgot their insulin
they had to collect their daughter from a dance class
they had won the lottery
THEY CHOSE TO DO SO BECAUSE THEY CAN AND ITS NO ELSES BUSINESS!!!!

 

[osgood]

why get bothered ?

 

[LamieRobertson]

No disrespect to the OP..but hasn't this been done to death?

PS why did so many leave after the players did there walk around the pitch but before the interview on cam by our glorious leader

 

[The Upper Library]

It is a symptom of all seater stadiums .
What annoys me most is the ones who whilst leaving early will suddenly stop, typically right in front of my seat just as something interesting happens in the match. My response is to shout "either leave or stay don't do both"

why get bothered ?

It's no worse than running out of milk (white no sugar)

 

[GT49er]

No idea why. Never done it myself - never even thought about doing it.

Yes, yes it has

 

[StonehamPark]

I left on 86 minutes.

I didn't want to spend 45 minutes queuing for the train.
I missed the goal.

I feel a bit guilty that I didn't stay to applaud the team after the game, but I imagine they'd understand my not wanting to stand outside in the cold, inhaling everyone's cigarette fumes whilst waiting to climb into a sardine tin of a train.

So what?

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Why do fans feel the need to post this on Nsc every time? Nobody has the answers. Some leave some stay. Accept it as part of life.

Why are twats like you so bothered what I do at the end of the game..... or before.

As it happened, I personally stayed until the final whistle today, saw the goal, but then had to get back for something in Southampton in the evening.

 

[Diablo]

WHY do we get thread like this after every home Game....??

 

[SUIYHP]

At a larger difference I could see the reason. I've walked out during especially abysmal games. But shirley you'd want to see out your team squeeze out a point for such a game like today though?

Do we? Really?
